Lunteren

Here are a few pictures taken this weekend during a brief stay in Lunteren, near Ede in The Netherlands. I used exclusively my Samyang 85mm f1.4 on my Canon 5d (full frame). This lens is really old-school. It is totally manual with no communication between lens and body at all. Hence, the focusing is done with a large, smooth focus ring. Trouble is, you have to get it right looking through the viewfinder and be quick about it if the subject is moving. Furthermore, at f1.4 (you have to try it to experience it….) you must be very accurate with the plane of focus or the picture will not be sharp where you want it to be. All in all an amazing lens for a very reasonable price.

  1. Funny, I didn’t know I took pictures LOL..my girlfriend, a photographer just showed me the site. You’re really good! Just couldn’t resist commenting on your stuff..it’s not often I come across someone with my name, not to mention the proper spelling of my first name.

  2. Glad you like the pictures. You should point me in the direction of your girlfriend’s website.
